This paper examines the collapse dynamics of a bubble generated by an electric spark near such an armored surface. The collapse of the bubble near the armored surface is similar to that near a free surface, with the formation of spraying liquid film, upward liquid jet in the forms of water dome, water spike, and water skirt with the change of the vertical distance (<em>l</em>) from the bubble center to the liquid surface. However, on the armored surface, we also observe particle splash and solid–liquid mixture splash. We confirm that the particle splash occurs due to the transfer of shock wave energy during bubble expansion and collapse. The splashing velocity (<em>v</em>_p) and the distance (<em>d</em>₀) from the bubble center to the particle follow the scaling law of <em>v</em>_p ∼ <em>l</em>/<em>d</em>₀². Additionally, we discuss the motion of the upward liquid jet and downward vortex ring. We find that the armored surface only affects the initial velocity of the jet without affecting its acceleration. This can be attributed to the additional energy dissipation caused by the splash formed on the armored surface. In contrast, the trajectory of the vortex ring remains unaffected by the armored surface. This study provides valuable insights into the dynamics of bubble collapse near an armored surface and highlights the role of floating particles in altering the behavior of liquid jets.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":12294,"journal":{"name":"Experimental Thermal and Fluid Science","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2024-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140759430","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study explores the intricate dynamics of subcooled flow boiling within a horizontal channel, investigating the impact of vapor generation on liquid-phase velocity using Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) and advanced image processing techniques. Four mass flow rates ranging from 5–20 g/s with subcooled inlet conditions are investigated in a rectangular channel with single-sided heating. Three regions of interest along the heated channel are investigated for instantaneous PIV analysis. The PIV system captures detailed velocity profiles, illustrating the impact of varying mass flow rates and heat flux levels on flow behavior. Vapor masking techniques are introduced to enhance the precision of PIV data by mitigating interference from the vapor phase. Results demonstrate the influence of vapor bubbles on flow resistance, revealing non-uniform velocity distributions and turbulence near the liquid–vapor interface. The study emphasizes the critical role of inertia and buoyancy forces in shaping the velocity profiles. Moreover, the investigation sheds light on the effects of flow rates on the interfacial behaviors, hinting at a transition point between 10 and 15 g/s.
